The purpose of
these talks is to bring about a psychological change in you, the individual. consciousness.
Humanity, understood psychologically, is an infinite series of levels of
awareness and you, individually, are what you are according to where you are in
the series. Consciousness is the only reality, and where you are conscious of
being psychologically, determines the circumstances of your life. The ancients
knew this great truth, but our modern teachers have yet to discover it. There
is only one substance in the world. Our scientists call it energy while
scripture defines it as consciousness. We are told that the universe was caused
by water, but if this is true, then it could not evolve into anything but
water. But if the basic substance is energy (or consciousness), it can be made
to manifest itself as iron, steel and wood, to name but a few. Man, seeing a
variety of forms, thinks of numberless substances, but what is seen is only a
change in the arrangement of the same basic substance... Consciousness.
Ephesians tells
us that, "All things, when admitted, are made manifest by light." The
word "light" recorded here means awareness; consciousness." The
state the individual admits into his consciousness is the cause of one man
being rich and another poor. The poor man admits to being in the state of
poverty by saying, "I am poor," just as the rich man admits wealth by
saying, "I am rich." Anything you, an individual, claim yourself to
be (be it good, bad or indifferent, right or wrong) must be made manifest in
your world, for by claiming the state, you have consented to its life.
There is only one
cause, and that is consciousness. Your consciousness is the center from which
your world mirrors and echoes the state you presently occupy. Now, a state can
be defined as all that you believe and consent to as being true. So, if you
want your world to change, you must determine what you want to accept and
consent to as true before you can change it. To arrive at a certain definition
of self, you must begin by uncritically observing your automatic reaction to an
event, for your reaction defines your state. And you can, without getting out
of your chair, rebuild your world by changing your level (or state) of being.
This is done by observing yourself uncritically as you react to life. If you do... READ MORE
